✦ Synopsis

July, m61.] BOOK REVIEW.q 6 5 sented papers contributed by participants are included in the proceedings. A few brief summaries of papers contributed by authors not attending the conference are also included.

There is a list of all the participants and their associated laboratories. The index contains all names of authors of papers printed in the volume and participants in the discussions. These contents of the volume make it an excellent reference for those high energy physicists who did, as well as those who did not, attend the conference. Its speedy publication in a matter of months after the conference is not the least of its merits.
